Actually the playback is fine - it's real-time. The OpenDivX encoder is a
slightly enhanced version of the MoMuSys MPEG-4 implementation, and is very slow,
but I understand the decoder is a complete rewrite - it's fast. Personally I'm
not a big fan of the OpenDivX project (for a start it's not GPL'd), although
MPEG-4 in general is great.

It uses the win32 CODEC loading mechanism from the avifile library, but not AVI
file reading part of it - it does it's own AVI parsing, apparently with a good
deal of robustness to errors. The speed really comes from the multithreaded
internals, buffering and optimized output drivers.
